ModRetro finally pulled the curtain back on its transparent M64 N64-style console, complete with Funtastic-style shells and a trident controller, and Palmer Luckey is already talking big — calling it “better by every objective measure” than the Analogue 3D while keeping the price at $199. We’ll break down the design, controller, feature set, and whether it really has what it takes to challenge Analogue’s $249.99 4K FPGA monster. ?? That’s not all! We’re also checking out the Abxylute M4, a tiny snap-on iPhone game controller that clings to your MagSafe device, packs real sticks and triggers into a pocket-sized shell, and still comes in at an affordable price. If you’re into retro and cloud gaming on the go, this might be your new everyday carry. ??? And to cap it off, we’re diving into Pixels to Pages, a free YouTube documentary from Game Sack and My Life in Gaming that chronicles the history of Electronic Gaming Monthly with classic editors, deep-cut stories, and a big hit of late-’80s/’90s magazine nostalgia. If you grew up flipping through EGM, you’re gonna feel this one. ??

Quarter Arcades Store » https://amzn.to/4rEbNEm Get ready to relive the thrill of Elevator Action! This ¼ scale cabinet from Numskull Designs brings the classic Taito espionage game to life. Guide your spy through a skyscraper, dodge enemies, and gather secrets. With authentic artwork and gameplay, it’s a must-have for arcade fans! Elevator Action is a 1983 shooter platform video game developed and published by Taito for arcades. The player assumes the role of a secret agent infiltrating a 30-story building from the roof, then descending to ground level via elevators and stairways. Enemy agents emerge from closed doors and shoot at the player. The goal is to collect secret documents from specially marked rooms, then exit to a waiting getaway car. It runs on the Taito SJ System arcade system. The game was a critical success and was the top-grossing game on the Japanese arcade charts for three months in late 1983. It has been ported to a variety of home systems and appeared on Taito compilations. An arcade sequel, Elevator Action Returns, was released in 1994. #retrogaming #arcade #miniature #genxgrownup @NumskullGames - SHOP Elevator Action » https://amzn.to/4rJH4pq Quarter Arcades Store » https://amzn.to/4rEbNEm http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Numskull Facebook Group » https://genxgrownup.com/fbqa G'AIM'E Time Crisis » http://genxgrownup.com/gaime King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 Elevator Action 01:06 Box & Contents 02:40 Hardware Tour 06:52 Power On 07:55 Game One 10:30 Game Two 14:55 Summary

The original Atari Flashback was released in November 2004, with a retail price of $45. The console resembles a smaller version of the Atari 7800, and its controllers are also smaller versions of the 7800's joystick controllers, but with the addition of "pause" and "select" buttons. The controllers are not compatible with the original 7800 console. It was designed by Atari veteran Curt Vendel and his company Legacy Engineering Group, which designs other home video game and video arcade products. #atari #retrogaming #consolegaming #genxgrownup 08:54 bz friday plays 11:25 blaze asteroids 14:38 blaze crystal castles - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com - CHAPTERS 00:00 The First Flashback 03:00 Box & Contents 06:43 Hardware 07:50 Power On 09:56 Air Sea Battle 10:59 Asteroids 11:50 Battlezone 12:36 Breakout 13:18 Canyon Bomber 13:55 Centipede 14:23 Crystal Castles 15:20 Desert Falcon 16:11 Food Fight 17:20 Haunted House 18:16 Millipede 18:38 Planet Smashers 19:28 Saboteur 20:06 Sky Diver 20:51 Solaris 21:09 Sprintmaster 21:37 Warlords 22:08 Yars' Revenge 23:12 Adventure

Shop Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox In 1982, Sega shook the arcades with the release of the groundbreaking 3D isometric space-shooter, Zaxxon. In the early '80s, when an arcade game became a standout hit, it was a race to get a verison of it onto home consoles. And no home console at the time was better suited to take on the challenge of this graphical juggernaut than the shiny new powerhouse: ColevoVision. #retrogaming #sega #colecovision #genxgrownup - SHOP http://genxgrownup.com/amazon http://GenXGrownUp.com/merch - PODCAST http://GenXGrownUp.com/pod - SUPPORT US https://patreon.com/genxgrownup - WEB & SOCIAL http://GenXGrownUp.com/discord https://twitch.tv/genxgrownup http://fb.me/GenXGrownUp https://bsky.app/profile/genxgrownup.com https://www.tiktok.com/@genxgrownup https://www.instagram.com/genxgrownup/ http://GenXGrownUp.com - SPONSORS Fightbox » https://genxgrownup.com/fightbox King of Nerds » http://kingofnerds.tv Order of Cosmic Champions » http://www.orderofcosmicchampions.com
